Technical Problem

[0004]乘客在乘坐电梯上下楼的时间就是典型的碎片时间,现在常规的做法是用镜面不锈钢板制作轿壁,以整个轿壁映射乘客影像,帮助仪容整理,但镜面不锈钢板成本比较高,提高了轿厢的制作成本,且平整度较差,影像容易扭曲而体验不佳

Benefits of technology

[0013] Compared to existing technologies, this invention combines a control box with a mirror. A display and multiple control buttons (floor selection, door opening, door closing, and intercom) are mounted on the mirror for passenger use to control elevator operation, fulfilling the control box's functions. A switching button is also provided on the mirror. When passengers want to use a spare moment to groom themselves in the elevator car, the switching button can deactivate all control buttons, eliminating light in the mirror's projection area while illuminating the light source on the outer side of the mirror, directly facing the passenger. This avoids areas of contrasting light and shadow, creating a beautifying effect. Simultaneously, the mirror's flatness prevents image distortion, resulting in a better user experience and facilitating grooming. This invention features two interfaces: a conventional control box interface and a beautifying mirror interface. The mirror and its surrounding light source form a beautifying mirror, and the switching button allows for easy switching between the two interfaces. Because the mirror provides an image for passengers grooming, the elevator walls can be made of conventional matte stainless steel, reducing elevator costs. In summary, this utility model has the advantages of reducing the manufacturing cost of the elevator car and improving the passenger's experience when tidying up their appearance inside the car.

[0002] The elevator control panel is located inside the elevator car, usually fixed to the car wall. The control panel has multiple buttons with floor indicator functions, and passengers can select the floor they want to reach by pressing the buttons.

[0003] With the improvement of living standards and the acceleration of the pace of life, people who pay attention to their personal image have high requirements for their appearance and hope to maintain a perfect state at all times. They use fragmented time to tidy up their appearance to increase their sense of emotional value and pleasure.

[0004] Passengers' time spent riding elevators up and down floors is typically fragmented. The current common practice is to use mirrored stainless steel panels to create the elevator walls, reflecting the passenger's image to aid in grooming. However, mirrored stainless steel panels are expensive, increasing the elevator's manufacturing cost, and their unevenness can distort the image, resulting in a poor experience. Furthermore, when passengers use the overhead lighting to groom themselves, the light shines down from above, creating areas of light and shadow on their faces, further reducing the experience and hindering grooming.

[0018] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments, but this should not be construed as limiting the present invention.

[0019] Example 1: An elevator control box with a beauty makeup mirror function, such as Figure 1As shown, the elevator includes a mirror frame 8 fixed to the rear side of the car wall 1. The mirror frame 8 is a flat cylindrical shape. A circular lens 2 is provided inside the mirror frame 8. The lens 2 is a glass lens. A ring-shaped light source 3 is located between the lens 2 and the mirror frame 8. The light source 3 is connected to the elevator control system. The light source 3 uses LED light strips or LED light panels, and provides white light illumination with a color temperature of 6500k through multiple LED beads on the LED light strips or LED light panels.

[0020] The front side of the light source 3 is provided with a light-transmitting plate 7 fixed to the frame 8. The light-transmitting plate 7 provides protection for the light source. The rear side of the light-transmitting plate 7 is provided with a frosted surface to make the light output more uniform.

[0021] Lens 2 can be fixed to frame 8 via ring-shaped bracket 12. Light source 3 can be fixed to frame 8 via bracket 12, or directly fixed to frame 8.

[0022] The lower part of the lens 2 is equipped with a display 4. The lens 2 needs to have an opening to accommodate the display 4. The display 4 is fixed to the lens 2. The front side of the display 4 is flush with the front side of the lens 2. The display 4 is used to display the current floor position of the car and the direction of travel of the car.

[0023] Six floor selection buttons 5 are located on one side of the display 4. These buttons are used to control the elevator car to reach the desired floor. The display 4 also has an open door button 9, a close door button 10, and an intercom button 11. The open door button 9 is used to issue a door opening command, the close door button 10 is used to issue a door closing command, and the intercom button 11 is used to issue an intercom request command. These buttons—floor selection buttons 5, open door button 9, close door button 10, and intercom button 11—are standard elevator control buttons, all connected to the elevator's control system, and arranged in a rectangular array.

[0024] The bottom of the lens 2 is equipped with a switching button 6 for controlling the working state of the light source 3, and the switching button 6 is connected to the elevator control system.

[0025] All buttons in Example 1 are mechanical buttons of the same structural type, which are also the control buttons used in most elevators. The difference lies in the different shapes of light-emitting areas on the pressing area, which are connected to different signal input points and / or output points of the elevator control system. The shape of the light-emitting area indicates the purpose of the button. For example, the shape of the light-emitting area on the floor selection button 5, which represents going to the 3rd floor, is "3". When the button is not pressed, the light-emitting area does not emit light; when the button is pressed, the light-emitting area emits light to provide feedback to the passenger. This is existing technology. A hole needs to be made in the lens 2 to house the button. The pressing area of ​​the button slightly extends beyond the lens 2. The button can be fixed to the frame 8 or to the back of the lens 2.

[0026] The usage method of Example 1: The display 4, floor selection button 5, door opening button 9, door closing button 10 and intercom button 11 constitute the same operating interface as the existing elevator control box, allowing passengers to control the car status.

[0027] When a passenger needs to tidy their appearance, pressing the switch button 6 sends a signal to the elevator's control system. The control system then shuts down the display 4, de-energizing the built-in LEDs of the floor selection button 5, door open button 9, door close button 10, and intercom button 11, preventing them from emitting light in their respective areas. With no light generated within the lens 2 area, the control system activates the light source 3, emitting soft light to enhance the image on the lens, providing a beautifying effect. After tidying up, pressing the switch button 6 again stops the light source 3, restarts the display 4, and allows the floor selection button 5, door open button 9, door close button 10, and intercom button 11 to illuminate when pressed.

[0028] Example 2: An elevator control box with a beauty mirror function. Compared with Example 1, the floor selection button 5, door opening button 9, door closing button 10, intercom button 11, and switch button 6 all use capacitive mirror touch switches. No holes are needed on the lens 2; only a corresponding light-emitting area needs to be sandblasted or laser-engraved on the mercury surface at the corresponding position on the back. The mirror touch switch is then attached to the back of the lens 2, allowing light from the mirror touch switch to pass through the light-emitting area. Mirror touch switches are widely used in beauty mirrors on dressing tables. They are considered "invisible switches," allowing for a wider reflective area on the mirror surface, reducing obstruction, and providing a better effect.
